[pkg-fetchmail-maint] Bug#355457: fetchmail uses /var/lib/fetchmail rather than /var/run for pid file

[Kevin Dalley]

Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.3.2-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.1.1

fetchmail uses the file /var/lib/fetchmail/.fetchmail.pid, which is
not cleaned up on startup.  A system crash causes fetchmail to believe
that it is still running, and the server is not restarted.  /var/run should be used instead.
